“…We can say that both education and educational tourism industries have grown in recent years, which led to the growing recognition of these industries from economic and social perspectives [25, p. 64]. The main aim of educational tourism is to educate students to identify and understand problems in sustainable tourism development [26].…”

The article explores educational tourism and identifies its role in learning foreign languages. The authors look into the language policy of universities through the academic mobility of students and teachers. Based on the research subject, the authors analyse relevant literature and use the empiric observation method and questionnaire of educational tourists. They also consider foreign language studying options at their native universities and compare them with the ways of studying at other universities in the context of educational tourism. The research shows the most popular forms of educational tourism for students studying foreign languages. It allows connecting travel experience and students' motivation to study. The paper will be helpful for researchers who try to optimise the educational process of learning languages by applying educational tourism and for people interested in improving their language skills and overcoming the language barrier.

“…Malaysia has recorded a total of 307 mammal species, with more than 30 endemic species [2]. In Perak state alone, previous studies were conducted to understand the diversity, composition, behaviour and bait preference of terrestrial small mammals comprising of volant small mammals (Families: Rhinolophidae, Hipposideridae, Vespertilionidae and Pteropodidae) and non-volant small mammal (Families: Muridae and Sciuridae) [3,4,5,6,7,8]. Among small mammal groups, rodents are the most geographically widespread and possess a high adaptation level, enabling them to survive in various environments, whether natural or modified [9].…”

There are at least four families of rodents identified in Peninsular Malaysia namely Muridae, Sciuridae, Hystricidae, and Rhyzomidae. Although rodents are widespread throughout Peninsular Malaysia, information on rodents at Padang Chong Forest Reserve (PCFR) is scarce. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to identify and document the species composition of rodents at PCFR. Samplings were carried out at two plots along the gradient from the border of PCFR namely Plot 1 (500m) and Plot 2 (1km). The size of the respective plot is 1ha with 10 transect lines (AJ), 100m in length separately. These plots were sampled for five times from June to November 2022. Based on this study, a total of 65 individuals from nine species of rodent were documented. These nine species were identified from two families namely, Muridae (5 spp) and Sciuridae (4 spp). Of these, Leopoldamys sabanus was recorded as the highest captured species (25 individuals), followed by Maxomys whiteheadi (19 individuals) and Callosciurus notatus (7 individuals). There is no significant difference in terms of species composition between these plots, Plot 1 (n=33) and Plot 2 (n=32), which further supported by t-test value result (t-test=0.928; p(value)> 0.05). However, there is a single representative of Sundamys muelleri captured in Plot 1 which prefers the riverine area (around 10m). Callosciurus notatus were captured most in Plot 2 (6 individuals) compared to Plot 1 (1 individual). Certain areas nearby to Plot 2 were opened for agricultural purposes which explained the existence of this species at Plot 2. From this information, it is hoped that further actions can be taken to conserve the area to ensure the small mammal communities are preserved.
